It sets into sobering relief the paradoxical ways in which a broad international toleration of traditional anti-Judaism allowed, under a banner of Christian benevolence, a transnational public discourse of antisemitic ideas masked in conversionary  language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57029722308982,"sku":"9781526161291","price":30.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_40213195_189e4d89-e6ca-4ba1-b825-98651a34592f.jpg?v=1772700338","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781526161291-tracking-the-jews","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
